Baildon House is a truly majestic Grade II Listed manor house, originally built for the prominent Holden family in the early 18th century. Rich in history and architectural splendour, the property occupies a commanding position within approximately an acre of private, gated grounds, providing a rare combination of privacy and grandeur.

The sale represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of the Baildon’s most significant period residences, right in the heart of the historic conservation area. Over recent years the property has been the subject of an extensive programme of sympathetic renovation and redecoration, blending timeless heritage with modern refinements to create a home of outstanding quality.

A particular highlight is the magnificent transformation of the former Coach House, reimagined as a spectacular open-plan kitchen, dining and entertaining space, including Lutron automation lighting system, it forms the true heart of the home - light-fi led, versatile and perfectly suited to both day-to-day family living and largescale gatherings. Complementing this space is the property’s original kitchen, which has been updated under the current ownership and now serves as a highly practical preparation kitchen for entertaining on a grand scale, or as a more intimate everyday kitchen when the larger space is not required.

The principal reception rooms retain their original elegance with high ceilings, sash windows and ornate detailing, providing a superb setting for both formal and informal occasions. Upstairs, six generously proportioned bedrooms offer character, charm and far-reaching views across the gardens and surrounding area. The principal suite enjoys its own dressing room and bathroom facilities, whilst three further bathrooms serve the remaining bedrooms, ensuring comfort and convenience for both family and guests.

Approached via electric entrance gates, a sweeping gravelled driveway leads past the garaging and Coach House to an extensive forecourt providing ample private parking. To the rear, an enclosed stone-paved courtyard gives access to a substantial stone-built triple garage, complete with two sets of traditional folding doors and a central roller door, a superb complement to the main residence.

A particular feature of Baildon House are the beautifully tended formal gardens which enjoy a high degree of privacy and are largely enclosed by stone walling. Thoughtfully landscaped and extensively stocked, they include shaped lawns, colourful borders, rockeries, and a wealth of specimen trees and flowering shrubs. Immediately to the front of the house lies a landscaped walled garden, designed with lawn and planted beds interspersed with raised stone-paved walkways and a patio area. Beyond, pathways meander gracefully through the wider grounds, leading to a delightful feature pergola at the rear. Adding to the appeal for entertaining, the gardens also include a superbly equipped outdoor kitchen complete with a wood-fired pizza oven - the perfect setting for hosting family and friends in style.

Baildon House is not only a fine example of Georgian architecture, but also a home that has evolved for modern family life, offering both historical significance and exceptional lifestyle appeal.

Perfectly placed, Baildon House is situated just a mile from the village centre where a wide range of shops, schools and everyday amenities can be found. The area also boasts golf courses, two health spas and equestrian facilities, all within easy reach. For commuters, Baildon railway station is within walking distance, offering direct links to Leeds and Bradford with their commercial and educational hubs, while the M1 and M62 motorway networks are also readily accessible for travel further afield.
